Özet:

 This study aims to raise social awareness and consciousness in the context of religion. The Camdaki Kız series, which is examined among the series that reach millions on the screens, constitutes the sample of the study, and the distorted religious rituals shown in the series constitute the problem of the study. While screens convey healthy information to the audience on the one hand, they can sometimes turn into a tool for conveying false information on the other. In this context, it can negatively affect and change the social, cultural and psychological attitudes of individuals. In our country, where media literacy is not at high levels in terms of society, it is among the possibilities that the audience perceives the erroneous religious content they see on the screen correctly and thus applies it in their own practices. In the study, the semiotic method and discourse analysis method, which are frequently used in qualitative research, were used together. With this design, the integrity of religion - ritual and the character relationship were tried to be analyzed. It was found that the first season of the examined television series was mostly associated with religious rituals. The events experienced between Nalan and Feride among the fictional characters constructed in the series and the dialogues in some scenes constitute examples of some incorrect rituals in terms of religion. The study draws attention to these mistakes and emphasizes the negative aspects of television productions.

 Bu çalışma dini bağlamda toplumsal bilinçlenme ve farkındalık amacı taşımaktadır. Ekranlardan milyonlara ulaşan diziler arasından incelenen Camdaki Kız dizisi çalışmanın örneklemini, dizide gösterilen çarpıtılmış dini ritüeller ise çalışmanın problemini oluşturmaktadır. Ekranlar bir yandan sağlıklı bilgiyi izleyiciye ulaştırırken diğer yandan kimi zaman yanlış bilgileri aktarma aracına da dönüşebilmektedir. Bu bağlamda bireylerin sosyal, kültürel ve psikolojik tutumlarını negatif yönde etkileyip değiştirebilmektedir. Medya okuryazarlığının toplumsal açıdan üst seviyelerde olmadığı ülkemizde izleyicinin ekranda gördüğü hatalı dini içerikleri doğru olarak algılaması ve bu şekilde kendi pratiklerinde uygulaması olasılıklar arasındadır. Çalışmada nitel araştırmalarda sıklıkla kullanılan göstergebilim yöntemi ve söylem analizi yöntemi birlikte kullanılmıştır. Bu tasarım ile din - ritüel bütünlüğü ve karakter ilişkisi çözümlenmeye çalışılmıştır. İncelenen televizyon dizisinin ilk sezonunun daha çok dini ritüeller ile ilişkilendirildiği bulgulanmıştır. Seride inşa edilen kurgusal karakterler arasında Nalan ile Feride arasında yaşanan olaylar ve bazı sahnelerde geçen diyaloglar dini açıdan bir takım yanlış ritüellere örnek teşkil etmektedir. Çalışma bu yanlışlıklara dikkat çekerek televizyon yapımlarının olumsuz yönüne vurgu yapmaktadır.
